Chapter 297: Chapter 297: Qin Jia’s Conspiracy (5)

With the numbers rolling on the big screen, the bid codes for the first zone had all been displayed. In this zone, An Yiqing had only selected three rough jade pieces, all of relatively smaller size but high-quality jade.

Zhang Yuksheng watched the scrolling numbers on the screen intently. When the amounts next to the three rough jade bid codes stopped changing, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they were all secured. However, this was just the beginning; what followed was the most important part.

Shen Feng had been sitting next to her, looking around. Seeing the nervous or regretful expressions on the faces around her, and then looking at An Yiqing’s calm demeanor, she became curious.

"Qingqing, why aren’t you nervous?" Shen Feng’s gaze passed Duan Tang and settled on An Yiqing.

The girl held her teacup, took a light sip, and joked, "Because I have superpowers."

"Eh..." Shen Feng was dumbfounded, looking at the smiling girl.

Shen Long, with a face of helplessness, poked Shen Feng, truly concerned about her sister’s intelligence.

After the laughter, the bid codes on the big screen had changed several times. The next round would be the third zone, which included the block of Red Jade that An Yiqing had her eye on.

The numbers on the screen shifted, and everyone in the auction hall was anxiously awaiting.

"Sister Siqing, is the rough jade you’re interested in in this batch?" Guh Ruoyao asked nervously, staring at the big screen.

Guh Siqing nodded her head confidently, "This piece definitely contains top-notch jade. I’ve multiplied my ideal price by five—it’s bound to be mine!"

Ah Chen, sitting beside her, heard Guh Siqing’s confident words, his eyes flickered slightly, and he turned his head subtly to gaze at An Yiqing from the corner of his eye, his expression unreadable.

On the big screen, the code switched to 3608, which was the piece of Red Jade An Yiqing was interested in.

The numbers behind the code kept changing, rising rapidly. Starting from around half a million, they soared upwards. According to the display, there were about twenty bidders for this piece, a competition that was not particularly fierce.

Guh Siqing stared intently at the screen, her hands clenched tightly.

There it was! Her bid! 2.3 million!

Just as the numbers seemed to settle, Guh Siqing’s eyes brightened; she had just relaxed when the 2.3 million suddenly became 2.31 million!

"This is impossible!"

Guh Siqing stood up suddenly, in disbelief, staring at the big screen!

"Hmph! What, you think only you can bid and nobody else is allowed to buy?" Guh Siqi scoffed, his tone laden with sarcasm.

Guh Siqing’s face turned ugly as she stood for a while, then slowly sat down with a reminder from Ah Chen.

She clenched her fists tightly and gnawed on her teeth. Who was it that beat her to the rough jade by a mere ten thousand yuan!

At An Yiqing’s location, Zhang Yuksheng looked at the final numbers settling on the screen and heaved a great sigh of relief.

"Miss, that was too close! 2.31 million! We were only a thousand yuan away from someone else’s bid!" Zhang Yuksheng looked up to An Yiqing admiringly, saying excitedly.

The girl’s eyes curved with her brows; she was pleased but not overly excited. She had seen it all clearly when she inspected the marked boxes yesterday. She was quite curious about the person who bid 2.3 million—the piece, although large, was not particularly noticeable. Its price had been hovering under a million before, yet someone suddenly upped it to 2.3 million. An Yiqing would not believe for a second that this person did not know the exceptional quality of the jade.
